True, but did they show up aggressively and unannounced stormed into the guy's house or land while armed to the teeth and totally shock him into death?

They didn’t storm anything. They responded to the call and the man came at the police with a gun. They de-escalated.

What are you proposing they should have done? Just waited it out from a distance?
